25
Bone marrow red blood cells
Carry oxygen
26
Bone marrow white blood cells
Prevent infection
27
Bone marrow platelets
Control bleeding
28
Muscles movement function
Voluntary and involuntary
29
Muscle types
Cardiac Skeletal Smooth
30
Muscle types cardiac
Middle layers of heart
31
Muscle types skeletal
Voluntary Work with bones tendons and ligaments to support
32
Muscle types smooth
Involuntary Line inside of some organs
33
Muscle operation
Pons->medulla->spinal cord->nerve branch->peripheral nervous system->neuromuscular junction
34
Signal meets muscle at the
Neuromuscular junction
35
Is the chemical that triggers the action potential
Neurotransmitter
36
Tendons
Connect muscle to bone Work as levers to move the bone
37
Ligaments
Connect bone to bone Hold important structures in place Allow bones to move a certain way
38
Cartilage
Protects joints and bones (shock absorber) Prevents bones from rubbing together
39
Digestive system organs digest and absorb nutrients
GI tract and Biliary tract
40
GI Tract
Mouth->esophagus->stomach->small intestine->large intestine
41
Biliary tract
Bile ducts-> gall bladder-> liver-> pancreas
42
Small intestine
More than 90% of the nutrients and water your body receives
43
Small intestine microbiology do what to absorb nutrients
Increase the surface area
44
Large intestine
Absorbs water and salts Liquid food waste
45
Liver
Cant live without it Vulnerable to disease
46
Liver function
Filter waste Break down fats to produce energy
47
Blue ducts
Made in liver Acid that breaks down fats and lroteins
48
Gall bladder
Stores and releases bule
49
Pancreas
Makes enzymes and hormones (Exocrine system for digestion) (endocrine system control sugar in blood)
50
Circulatory system
Amount of oxygen in blood affects brain and eyes
51
Blood
Carries oxygen to tissues Removes waste Regulates temp and pressure
52
4 parts of blood
Plasma- liquid Red blood cells- oxygen White blood cells- infections Platelets- blood clots
53
Blood flow
Heart Arteries Capillaries Tissue Veins Lungs
54
Blood vessels- arteries and arterial Ed and capillaries
Distribute blood from heart
55
Veins and venues and capillaries
Return blood to heart
56
Role of kidneys and liver
Detoxify Liver- process and filter blood Kidneys- excrete water waste
57
Bright red blood cells carry
Hemoglobin and oxygen
58
Dark red blood cells
Hemoglobin w min oxygen
59
Red blood cell carries BLANK oxygen
95-98%
60
Upper respiratory tract
Brings air to body
61
Lower respiratory tract
Smaller tubes that transport from upper to alveoli
62
Without oxygen cells cannot
Convert glucose and nutrients into energy
63
Oxygen pressure in the lungs is BLANK than in the blood
Higher
64
Oxygen pressure in the blood is BLANK than in the tissue
Higher
